"A Knight to Remember" Father-Daughter Dance

(Saturday, February 6, 2010)

The dance was a great success.  We had over 120 people in attendance. Many of our Resurrection Challenge girls began the night with attending 5:30 Mass together.  Some went out to dinner before heading to the dance.

Once they arrived at the dance, the Knights of Columbus were there to honor their arrival.  Every father and daughter had their keepsake photo taken and then it was time to start dancing.

The DJ kept everyone moving and the mom volunteers kept them well fed with all the many desserts offered.  The cake silent auction even had a cake decorated to look like a swimming pool with shimmering blue “water.”

Thanks to all that helped to make this a special memory for our girls and their fathers.

Bingo with the retired priests

On Oct. 10th, our Challenge team joined with Wichita Challenge groups from Blessed Sacrament and St. Thomas to play bingo with our retired priests. We wanted to celebrate "Year for the Priest" with them.

Formation meetings

Our members are led in their formation meetings by their Team Leaders. The leaders are high school girls who have benefitted from the many fruits of Challenge and now want to give back by leading these girls. We couldn't do it without them. Thank you ladies!

The Charity Challenge

Our Resurrection Club met at Mrs. Pfeifer's house and created a Charity Food Train for a food drive at RCS. On Oct 30th, we took the donated bounty to Catholic Charities and joined the other Wichita Challenge groups there. Once there we spoke with one of the workers and learned that Catholic Charities fees almost 4,000 people a month and is always in need of donations.

We walked to the Cathedral and prayed a rosary for the recipients and donors of the food.

Then it was time to have a little social activity. The girls all enjoyed ice skating. Some of our ladies were pros and some benefited from the kind hearts of others as they assisted them around the rink.

Retreats

Our girls also have the opportunity to attend retreats to further their relationship with Christ.

This year's retreat was held at Prairie Star Ranch near Williamsburg, KS. Our girls joined with other girls from Wichita and the Kansas City area for a great weekend in November.
